This Video Present the APFSDS-T penetration against the various armor materials. The APFSDS-T dimensions and materials are equivalent to 120mm L23A1 APFSDS-T, while 700 mm thick armor with different materials (Aluminum alloy, steel, RHA, Tungsten Alloy, Depleted Uranium, Titanium, Plastic, Maraging Steel,Plastic, etc) are considered.
Note: Plastic does not used as vehicle armor as single material, but it can be used in composite armor with combination of others armor materials.

Maraging steel seems pretty ideal in this case, having comparable performance to depleted uranium and tungsten alloys while weighing half as much, likely being much less expensive, and also likely able to be produced in much larger quantities.

@snaredrum5167 2 года назад

Yeah but if you want appropriate protection you need a crap ton more steel which is not just heavier in total but bulkier. And yeah it would be cheaper, but it's for a tank anyway. They're willing to spend the money

@DS-wl5pk 2 года назад

Well we need composites because HEAT, but it also saves weight when trying to make it immune to kinetic rounds. If you went with only steel, you’d need to consider HEAT performs best against that and now you need 8 feet of steel in multiple places

@skitidet4302 2 года назад

@@DS-wl5pk Or you could use ERA or NERA to deal with HEAT. It's by far the most low weight solution if you want more HEAT protection and the 2nd, 3rd and 4th generation Russian ERA even have decent effects on APFSDS projectiles as well, especially the later generations.

Even normal armor steel beats tungsten/DU in this kind of homogenous armor. In reality though, pretty much every modern tank uses composite armor, which combines materials like steel, plastics, ceramics and tungsten/DU, to get the most out of their specific properties. Its also used in a fairly complex setup, with lots of empty spaces inbetween armor plates. Something like an Abrams or Leo2 turret has way more space dedicated to armor than you might think.

So maraging steel is the cost effective solution among all these (as Iron ore, the primary material is far more abundantly available compared to Tungsten and Uranium) while providing almost as much protection (49% penetration against 700 mm plate compared to 47% against Uranium and 46% against Tungsten plate of same thickness).

@mtylerw 2 года назад

Titanium is brittle, which is not the best for armor, old Battleship armor you only wanted the face to be hard (brittle) while the “softer” iron/steel backing would deform and absorb the damage. A titanium armor face, may be good. IDK.

@sbreheny 10 месяцев назад

Everybody thinks titanium is some kind of super material but really only two properties of it are advantageous - low density and moderate temperature resistance. Titanium is as strong as steel and as light as aluminum and it retains its strength well at 200 to 500C where aluminum and its alloys loose 90+% of their strength. But it is not better than hardened steel for armor nor is it good for very high temperatures (stainless steel and nickel super alloys are far better at this)

@paullakowski2509 2 года назад

Unfortunately these results would have to be dismissed in real life TEST SHOTS . In order to compare penetration figures , all targets would have to be "semi infinite"results , which means the reference target block would have to be much bigger than best penetration expected. I RECALL THE FIGURE IS 1.5 times maximum penetration, that way reductions in resistance due to the failure of the free edge of the back plate, can be accounted for.. used to be referred to as "T/D" By the same token the width of the target must be quite a bit wider than the diameter of the penetrating rod....again for free edge effects. Forget the designation. I will see if i can dig up the relevant paper.

@standard-carrier-wo-chan 2 года назад

A lot of these blocks, especially those that matter (like RHA and Maraging Steel) has over 1.5x the maximum penetration, though? On the RHA for example, the Tungsten penetrator achieved 444mm of penetration. 1.5x that is 666mm, which is within the 700mm block's threshold.

4340 steel maybe low carbon steel but is at the very limit of what can be worked on in un hardened state by HSS tooling. It is much harder than mild steel and produces bright shiny parts that for use in home shop are more than enough hard without actual hardening needed. For tapping you need to produce taps with less than standard contact or be ready to break a lot of taps. This is rather tough material to work with.

@DUKE_of_RAMBLE Год назад

So my takeaway here is the reason why the Tungsten (narrowly) beat out Depleted Uranium must have been due to the Tungsten on Tungsten interaction resulting in, what my layman brain is going to dumb down to: having a better coefficient of fiction due to being like metals. _(or... 'worse' CoF?? I dunno whichever =: "moar friction happening" lmao)_ Either way... I still can't help but wonder now, about whether placing a plate of *W* _(ideal thickness needs simulating)_ overtop of Marriaging Steel - be it spaced or flush or spaced + slightly angled - might yield worthwhile results?? 🤔 If so, it could be selectively placed over critical parts of a vehicle. Athough, I'm suspecting using Tungsten would be prohibitively expensive, making it completely moot... *even if* the results happened to be insanely good 😕

I wonder what would happen if you would put Plastic molds on top of a tanks armor? Since the Plastic showed to disfigure and damage the APFSDS. Would the damage done to it be enough for a regular tanks armor to stop it? Edit: There's also the fact that Plastic is so light. That I can't imagine it would mess up the Power to Weight ratio to much of a tank. Unlike the Reactive armor you see a lot on Russian tanks. Plastic is fairly light.

Present simulation consist most common type of plastic. If plastic is used as armor top, that plastic might be added with some preservative or chemicals to make it more harder and stronger. In general, Plastic armour could be applied by pouring it into a cavity formed by the steel backing plate and a temporary wooden form.

You mean combining different types of armor material in different layers? Like some kind of... composite armor? ;)

Yea actually the plastic did a really good job in making the dart rotate/tumble! So it would scatter on an armour behind it coldnt penetrate much

I wonder, would these materials present unique results if they're shot at from an angle?

A depleted uranium penetrator should have different characteristics than a tungsten alloy. The penetrators are denser and said to be self-sharpening when it shears.
